If you zap the veggies in a little bit of water in the microwave they
will soften nicely and you won't have to wait for days.

Be careful with beef; fish don't eat that in the wild and the high fat
may not be good for them. I have heard some people RARELY feed beef
heart to their carnivorous fish, but it is an occasional treat only.
